Termite Control companies in Houston

274 companies in the Houston area hold a state pest control license record we matched to this service. Our Texas license records were last checked on . This page lists 50 of them as cards, the first 15 on screen, and names 224 more further down.

Why this list is shorter than the roster

Our license records tie 455 businesses to Houston. 111 are not carried as consumer pest control, because the license scope on the record is lawn, tree or agricultural work, or the record has not cleared our consumer-service check. 1 is suspended on the record. 10 were no longer on the roster the last time we read it. That leaves 333, and 274 of them are matched to termite control. Those 274 are the companies counted on this page. This is a reading of the public record, not a check of workmanship or availability, and not an endorsement.

Not a ranking. How this list is ordered

This list puts claimed listings first, then records you can actually act on: a published phone, then a website, then an email. That is completeness of the public record, not a rating and not a recommendation. No company can pay to be added, to invent a license record, or to hide another company from this list. For a listing the company has not claimed, only the license record is confirmed; services, coverage, and availability are not.

A pest control license does not by itself prove a company is permitted for every specific job. Most of these companies have not confirmed their own services or coverage area with us yet, so check those details directly with the company.

National planning range for termite control

Termite Control national cost planning ranges
ServiceTypical U.S. price
Professional treatment planning range$575 to $1,400

Termite swarms most often appear in spring, but established colonies feed year-round. Annual inspections matter most in warm, humid regions where pressure is highest. If demand rises seasonally, asking providers about availability early can make scheduling easier.

These are typical U.S. ranges to set expectations. Your Houston price depends on the company, the size of the job, and how bad the problem is. National ranges are only a starting point. Your exact local quote comes from a pest control company after it assesses the job.

See the full termite control cost breakdown: pricing by method, what affects the price, and DIY vs professional.

See our full termite control guide for how the problem shows up and how it is treated.

What a termite inspection and treatment actually involve

A real termite inspection is physical work. The inspector gets into the crawlspace or basement and up into the attic, probes the sill plate, joists, and framing for soft spots, and checks the foundation walls for the mud tubes subterranean termites build to get from the soil to your wood. Around windows and light fixtures they are looking for discarded wings and for paint that has blistered over damaged wood. On an average house it takes anywhere from forty-five minutes to a couple of hours. Ask for the written report with the diagram showing where activity was found, because that page is what you compare a second opinion against.

Treatment depends on which termite you have. For subterranean termites, EPA lists the registered approaches as liquid soil-applied termiticides, in-ground bait systems, wood treatments, and treated building materials, and notes that in most cases these can only be applied properly by a trained professional. Drywood termites are a different decision. UC IPM splits those treatments into whole-structure work, meaning fumigation of the entire building at once, and localized spot treatment of a board or a small group of boards, and it warns that spot treatment cannot reach infestations hidden behind drywall.

Timelines vary just as much. A liquid perimeter treatment is usually a single long day. Baits work over months as the colony finds the stations, so the contract matters more than the visit. Fumigation means leaving the house for a couple of days and preparing food and medication for removal. Termite work is normally sold with an annual renewable agreement, and the line to read is whether it covers retreatment only or retreatment plus repair of new damage.

What to ask before you hire

  • Which termite is this, and what did you see that tells you so?
  • Whole-structure or localized treatment, and what would the other one cost?
  • Does the agreement cover retreatment only, or repairs too, and what does renewal cost?
  • Can I have the written report with the diagram of where activity was found?

These records were matched to licenses marked active when processed.

Source refresh timing varies by state, so confirm current status with the regulator before hiring.

Termite Control in Houston: frequently asked questions

How many licensed termite control companies does PestPin list in Houston, TX?

274 distinct businesses are matched to an active-status license record listed in the Houston, TX area, as of our most recent check of the state's list. That is a count of license records, not a statement of current service coverage or availability, so confirm with each company before hiring.

Who licenses pest control companies serving Houston, TX?

Texas Department of Agriculture, Structural Pest Control Service runs the licensing program. Every PestPin listing links the official record it was matched to, and the regulator's own lookup has the current status.

How much does termite control cost in Houston, TX?

PestPin's current national planning range for termite treatment is $575 to $1400. This is not a measured Houston, TX average or a local quote. Property size, severity, method, and provider pricing affect the total, so ask for a written quote before hiring.

Should I choose a licensed Houston, TX pest control company?

PestPin lists businesses matched to official license records marked active when processed and shows the record number and source. That snapshot is not proof of current status, insurance, or availability. Confirm the current record with the regulator and ask the company for insurance evidence before hiring.

Do I need a termite bond?

A termite bond is a service agreement with the company, not insurance and not a government program. It typically buys an annual re-inspection and free retreatment if activity comes back, and sometimes damage repair for a capped amount. The value is in the wording. Get the retreatment-only version and the repair version priced separately, and read what voids it, since altering the treated soil or adding a deck often does.

How quickly can an exterminator in Houston, TX come out?

Availability depends on the company and season. Some advertise same-day, emergency, or same-week visits, but confirm timing directly. PestPin offers a request to one provider at a time and confirms only after a provider accepts; we do not resell the same request to several companies at once.

Will the treatment fix the damage that is already there?

No. Treatment stops the termites; it does nothing for wood they already ate. Structural repairs are a separate job for a contractor, and the inspection report should tell you which members were affected so a builder can price it. Ask whether the damage found is cosmetic or structural before you assume either.

How long before I know it worked?

With a liquid treatment, live activity should stop within weeks, though you may still find old mud tubes and dead swarmers for a while. With a bait system the honest answer is months, because the colony has to find the stations and carry the material back. Either way, the annual re-inspection is what actually confirms it, so keep the report and compare the next one against it.

How do I check a pest control license in Houston, TX?

Every PestPin listing links the official state license record it was matched to, so you can open the source and read it yourself. For the current status, search the state regulator's own lookup using the license number shown on the listing. A record match on PestPin is a starting point, not a substitute for the regulator's live answer.
